Engagement & interaction

Stay connected during distance learning by regularly engaging with your programme, tutors, study coach, and fellow students. 

Why?

• You become part of the student community
• It motivates you
• It helps you process your learning 

How to connect?

  - Students testify why communication in online classes is important (video, 2’10)
• Take part in online discussion forums, ask questions to the teachers or your fellow students
• Reach out to your fellow students via online tools and social media 
  Create a class group on social media
  Use the group to discuss assignments, share reminders and ask questions while allowing some casual chat
• Study online together with friends, housemates or fellow students
